Care & Maintenance

Chrome

Use commercial cleanser and polish, according to manufacturer's directions.

Fabric

Under normal use, clean with soft cloth dampened with water. For spots and spills, we recommend professional cleaning. For COM, refer to the specific cleaning instructions recommended by the fabric supplier.

Emu Outdoor Fabric

Remove loose dirt with soft bristle brush or hose down with cold water. Clean with mixture of water and mild soap. Rub in mixture with soft brush and allow to thoroughly soak into fabric. Rinse thoroughly with cold water and air dry. Never use water over 100 degrees Fahrenheit. Do not machine dry. For light cleaning, avoid using detergents.

For stubborn stains use mixture of one gallon cold water, 1/2 cup bleach and 1/4 cup mild soap for one hour.

Detergents can be used without harm, though they may remove some of the water and stain resistant properties in the fabric.

Clean with warm water and soap. Wet sponge and wipe fabric. Household cleaners such as Windex® may be used. Do NOT use cleaners containing bleach.

Laminate and solid phenolic

Clean with soap and water. For stubborn stains, use a non-abrasive household cleaner.

Leather

Under normal use, regular dusting and vacuum cleaning are all that is necessary. For spots and spills, wipe excess liquid immediately. If necessary, use lukewarm water cleaning the entire area where spot occurred and air dry. For stubborn spots or stains, use a solution of mild non-detergent soap and air dry. For butter, oil, or grease, wipe excess with dry cloth and then leave alone. The spot will dissipate into the leather. Do not apply water.
